I am running Libreoffice 24.2.7.2 on Linux Mint 22.3 on a laptop with 64gigs of ram.
Things worked normally until a few days ago. Calc keeps crashing.I have a spreadsheet with 26 sheets. Each sheet is small, only 3-4 columns and a few pages of rows. However, when I click on a sheet, the first few times it works normally. Then for the next two it slows down. Then, it crashes and offers to recover the file. The same thing keeps happening. This is unworkable.
I restored my system from a backup I made before the crashing began. It crashed anyway. I removed Libreoffice via Software Manager, then reinstalled it. It crashes anyway.
I booted a Fedora live USB and installed Libreoffice, loaded the spreadsheet, and it worked perfectly, so the spreadsheet itself isn’t corrupted.
I ran fsck on the internal storage partitions. They are all clean.
I’m really upset. I need to use my spreadsheets.
Can anyone suggest anything? What could be wrong here?
